Pest Control Man
I'd shoot that
dog.
Ever heard of
BRASS?
Stands for Breathe,
Relax, Aim, Stop, and Shoot.
The Stop part
means stop breathing. You get
better accuracy,
it steadies your body.
I don't know
what your landlord's fussing about,
those termites
are dead. If it were me, I'd do
something about
that dog. That barking's infringing
on your personal
space. If you don't have that,
there's no respect.
See the rim of
your coffee cup? Last week
I went to a
range. Target was about that size.
23 of 25 from
100 meters. Hadn't touched a rifle
since active
duty. Six years and my body still remembered.
Hard part's
the psychology, the concentration.
County fair I
cleaned house. I won her
a lion and two
bears. Guy working the booth,
all he could
do was shake his head and hand them over.
I had the ferris
wheel stopped, too. She liked the lights.
Right there,
above everyone, I decided I'd make her my wife. |
